The foregoing four members shall unanimously select a tenured faculty member to serve as the at-large member. If the committee members cannot come to agreement regarding the at-large member of the committee, the Xxxxxxx shall appoint the at-large member. Workloads may be appealed only if the work load units assigned in a contract are inconsistent with work load units assigned for similar work under similar conditions in other contracts, or when the administration substantively changes the terms and conditions of work as laid out in the faculty member’s contract during the term of the contract.

The committee will be charged with resolving the differences. Such a resolution may include selecting one of the formal proposals or a compromise assignment. In making its decision, the committee will attempt to balance the following standards:
